Avalon Players

COOLER BY THE SHOW

What are we?

Over forty years ago, Dennis Soens, Bonnie Matt and Ginny Lynch asked the then mayor of Avalon if they could use Community Hall to put on a show. The mayor approved and the dramatic ensemble "Avalon Players" was born, taking the stage in its first production, A Taste of Broadway.

The following summer a flyer was circulated announcing auditions, and to everyone's surprise, hundreds of children appeared! No one was turned away each child was given a part in the show. This tradition continues today.

The Players took a break for a few years and returned in 1985. With the help and dedication of Suzanne Sennhenn, the Players experienced a new beginning and have presented musical productions for audiences every summer since. This summer marks our thirty seventh show.

This summer Avalon Players proudly presents...
